A transparent Pelling Sky Walk is opened in November 2018. It is made of glass and leads to the Chenrezig Statue. This 137 feet statue is an attraction which indeed caused a very significant footfall to this city. Khecheopalri Lake is a sacred lake that is believed to be taken care of by the birds.
